Thanx to R.J. Kaplan for WP Photo Album 1.5.1, the basis of this plugin.

Licence

WP Photo Album is released under the GNU GPL licence. ( http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html ))

Installation

Standard from the plugins page

Requirements

The plugin requires at least wp version 3.1.

The server should run PHP version 5.5 or later.

The theme should have a call to wp_head() in its header.php file and wp_footer() in its footer.php file.

The theme should load enqueued scripts in the header if the scripts are enqueued without the $in_footer switch (like wppa.js and jQuery).

The theme should not prevent this plugin from loading the jQuery library in its default wp manner, i.e. the library jQuery in safe mode (uses jQuery() and not $()).

The theme should not use remove_action() or remove_all_actions() when it affects actions added by wppa+.
Most themes comply with these requirements.
However, check these requirements in case of problems with new installations with themes you never had used before with wppa+ or when you modified your theme.

The server should have at least 64MB of memory.

When upload fails after an upgrade, one or more columns may be added to one of the db tables. In rare cases this may have been failed.
Unfortunately this is hard to determine.
If this happens, make sure (ask your hosting provider) that you have all the rights to modify db tables and run action Table VII-A1 again.

How do i install a hotfix?

See the documentation on the WPPA+ Docs & Demos site: https://wppa.nl/docs-by-subject/development-version/

Much settings to let it work as you want but needed some help with it. Jaap is really fast with replaying my emails (mostly within a few minutes!) his clear tips and answers are easy to follow so the app works as I want only with a few adjustments in the settings.

Interested in development?
